They\u2019re noticeably less chocolatey tasting than Cocoa Pebbles and Cocoa Puffs, which is disappointing for a cereal that is being marketed to the same folks who consume those classic cereals, whether they\u2019re actual kids or just kids at heart.<\/p>\n<p>I initially thought maybe its chocolatey level is the way it is because it needs to allow the peanut flavor to come through. However, I\u2019ve eaten enough peanuts to make Mr. Peanut use his cane as a weapon when he sees me, so I know what I\u2019m supposed to taste, but I don\u2019t detect it here. What my taste buds do notice is something that\u2019s kind of fruity, which might be the result of combining the chocolate and this cereal\u2019s attempt at a peanut flavor.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m extremely surprised Frosted Flakes didn\u2019t go with a peanut butter and chocolate combination, because that\u2019s a more eye-catching and mouth-watering combo. While chocolate and peanut instantly bring Peanut M&#038;M\u2019s to mind, the appeal of peanut butter and chocolate is a lot stronger.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/kellfrsfschopcer3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The milk looks chocolatey, but taste is whole different story.\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-77589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/kellfrsfschopcer3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/kellfrsfschopcer3.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/kellfrsfschopcer3.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/kellfrsfschopcer3.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/kellfrsfschopcer3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Along with a red bandanna-wearing tiger, the box\u2019s front cover also promises that the cereal makes chocolatey-flavored milk.
